For a start your syntax is incorrect. Here's the example from squid.conf:

# acl local-intranet dstdomain foo.net
# acl local-external dstdomain external.foo.net
# always_direct deny local-external
# always_direct allow local-intranet
# never_direct allow all

Secondly, if all your parent caches are unreachable, and you are not
allowed to go direct, exactly what are you hoping to achieve with
"never_direct"?
